Rosegrove Nursery School, Burnley

From the headteacher's welcome: "Rosegrove Nursery School has been part of the Rosegrove Community for over seventy years, many of our families (and staff ! ) have attended the nursery as children. These strong community links also extend further to working in partnership with local schools and other agencies. The Nursery School offers places to children from two years of age."

The school runs a breakfast club.
